Our church supports Life Network monthly. The services they offer literally breathe life into our community. They consistently serve families in need and are a positive force.
My husband and I went to the Volunteer Sneak Peak yesterday and it’s so amazing hearing how Life Network is making such a difference in our community. Our entire family wants to start volunteering! I pray God continues to use them in a mighty way!
Have been supporting (and walking for!) Life Network for 25 years. They do so much good in this community and the people are kind and focused on the goal of serving mom and dad and saving precious lives. My daughter and her husband went through their entire parenting course from ultrasound to graduation and it was a tremendous experience for them and gave her so much support and encouragement. Very thankful for Life Network.
I’m so thankful for the kind & generous staff and volunteers at Life Network! They do an amazing job of supporting women and families in need!
The staff and fellow volunteers have been nothing short of helpful, courteous and encouraging. The introduction to the nonprofit's Pregnancy Resource Center exceeded expectations in the services they offer for those in need of them. In both the thrift store and Resource Center there is an air of peace and graciousness. Truly they love the Lord.
I love volunteering at the Life Network Thrift Store. I was looking for a way to serve and this has been a perfect fit for me. Everyone is so friendly and willing to help each other. It is such a worthy organization and I am grateful I am able to support it. I feel like the work I do matters, and it has been a blessing to me.
A great group of people with a common goal..Save babies help families in a time of need. Faith based serving anyone.
What a great Mission! - this NPO is one with a great heart for helping bring new life into the world. I volunteer at the thrift store where the team is nothing short of a second family for me. Opportunities are numerous at the store allowing an individual to select the area that they would most like to work in where their interest are peaked. Even if you don't have any particular area of interest, the staff is very helpful in training. God Bless Life Network.
Life Network is an incredible organization, both the mission of this place and the people that work here! All the staff and volunteers have such a joyful mindset, and it shows in the store and the quality of service. All the items are carefully looked over, and of all the thrift stores in town, this is the cleanest and most careful and mindful about products that are put out. It's always a joy to both shop and volunteer here! The management here is also incredible, they are so helpful and always willing to work with us!
LifeNetwork Family Thrift Store is a great place to shop. Generous donors create a shopping trip to be more like a treasure hunt!
As a volunteer I see the integrity of the staff and committed volunteers gratefully receiving donations, spending endless hours sorting through donations, placing new items out daily with care, purging items weekly and genuinely connecting with customers. All this for greater goal of creating funding to reach out and encourage new expectant mothers and dads.
Come by and check it out. You’ll be so glad you did.

I volunteer at Life Network and absolutely love it. I get an inside look at staff and policies and this is certainly a place with high integrity.
New items are placed out daily and weekly items are placed at an additional discount. The merchandise is quality and quite often name brands. It’s a well organized store that even smells good!
Come in and check us out - you’ll most likely not leave empty handy.
I was able to help a young woman, single and pregnant, get the help she needed from LifeNetwork-a free ultrasound, counseling support, and, most of all, a sense she wasn’t alone. She had a beautiful baby girl!

Life Network meets the needs of men and women in the community that are needing support around a pregnancy or pregnancy decision. Each person they engage with is treated with kindness, dignity and professionalism!
I am both a volunteer for, and a donor to, Life Network. They are doing the Lord's work and I couldn't be prouder to have been associated with them over the last 2+ years.

I volunteer for Life Network a couple of hours each week as a Male Client Advocate, working with men who have just found out that they are going to be dads. It can be a very stressful time for many men so it's my job to help bring that stress level down by guiding them through the early part of that process.
I find volunteering with Life Network to be so rewarding that I'm also a regular monthly financial donor. So, basically, I'm paying for the privilege of volunteering my time there each week. That's how strongly I believe in what they do and enjoy what I do.
When patients come into Life Network for a pregnancy test, ultrasound, Parenting Program, or STD testing, they are loved on and treated well. We want them to know the love of God, and that they are valuable and have purpose. We try to do all we can to help and to follow up a few days or weeks later with a phone call. The volunteers at Life Network are here because we truly care about the baby and the parents, both physically and spiritually.
I have volunteered with Life Network many years ago as a client advocate, speaking to young women and sometimes their boyfriends, that came into the Pregnancy Center. Many times they were very overwhelmed and felt very scared and alone. Life Network offers so many valuable resources to help these women and sometimes couples to see a light a the end of of what seems to them a dark tunnel. They very often did not have much support, until they stepped into Life Network and found very caring, understanding , professional people to come along side them. All the services offered at the center are at no cost.
They are able to sit down with someone and talk, ask questions and get options. They are offered a free ultra sound and can choose to take classes in childcare and parenting. They are also given a motherhood coach, an individual that comes along side them as they enter into parenting. There are also men who can come along side dads who choice to be involved.
This is not an all inclusive list of everything Life Network does but it give you an idea of what a valuable and awesome organization this is and how fortunate we are to have several of these centers in our area.
Life Network is an amazing organization. My husband and I just got to attend a tour of the pregnancy center and it was beautiful. They are so thoughtful with the design space and providing high quality help to women in need. I was especially moved by the fact that the clinic side of the building did not have any baby or family pictures. They did this intentionally with the mental health of the women in mind. They also have invested in the parents, both moms and dads. These are skills that will benefit generations.
We also LOVE the thrift store. They have the cutest things. Everything is clean, well marked and shoppable. It feels so good to get a deal for myself and support a great cause!
I have been a volunteer for over 20 years with Life Network. This a great organization that is dedicated to helping the community. The counseling and crisis pregnancy services have help save so many life's. Not just the life of child but the eternal life of the young women as well. The Bridges of Hope program is an amazing healing tool for those who are post abortive.
Life Network is such a benefit for this community! The stability (40 years) of the organization speaks volumes. I have been involved in this organization for many years and have always been impressed with how organized & professional they are. I find their meetings & events well planned out and very effective. Therefore, they are very credible in our community with the work they do. Life Network has found critical needs that needed consistent influence & have created programs like Education for a Lifetime which has impacted thousands of high school students in our area. The pregnancy centers continue to succeed & thrive even in the midst of great opposition. Again, they have created a program that has had unlimited impact in the lives they have served through 2 year program they provide to parents of unplanned children. My hat is off to those in leadership, both on the board of directors and those who pour themselves into this mission on a daily basis. My role as a volunteer at the thrift store has been wonderful for the past 4 years. It's great to meet folks from so many different churches who work together so seamlessly. I know that the time I donate is assisting in achieving the mission by contributing financial support & impacts so many families .The store gets lots of compliments from customers regarding the cleanliness, quality & display of merchandise. I love being part of the team!
I have been a volunteer at Life Network for almost a year now. It has been a joy to be an Ultrasound Chaperone. The nurses are great and very professional. Everyone I have encountered while volunteering has been cordial, professional, and friendly. Love being there as much as I can!
I’ve been volunteering at Life Network as a motherhood coach for about 4 months now; and this place is amazing. From the moment I heard of the pregnancy center from my church, It captured my heart. I truly enjoy working and devoting my time there. There are so many resources available for mothers to be, as well as the fatherhood program for the men. This place is truly a blessing to the community. I’m thankful to be apart of this ministry.
It is a privilege to volunteer at LifeNetwork where I am able to love, bless and help women who are faced with unplanned pregnancies.
I’ve been volunteering as a parent coach to young moms for almost a year, and I’ve seen women become much more confident moms. I’ve seen hard hearts soften toward a gracious and loving Savior. I’ve seen women who once came in closed off and only wanting the “free” items turn into open books interested in sharing their stories and seeking encouragement. I’ve seen atheists eager to hear about a more positive hope. I’ve seen joy on the faces of young women who didn’t plan to have a child yet, but happy to make the big decision to mother. I’ve seen women better understand their self worth enough to walk away from abusive relationships. And I’ve seen babies and toddlers who are thriving in healthy environments because their moms are stronger and healthier. Life Network fosters an environment that allows for all of this. From the moment they walk in as nervous, unsure girls to when they return time and again for our services, everyone they encounter at Life Network makes them feel important, loved, and part of a supportive community they can count on. These women and men are experiencing the hands and feet of Jesus. I’m blessed to be a part of this amazing ministry!
I love the mission of Life Network! Their service to the community and women and men facing unprepared for situations is why I'll be a lifelong supporter!
Life Network lies and deceives vulnerable women seeking healthcare. They should be shut down for their fraudulent work.
I have been blessed to volunteer and to work for Life Network. The staff and volunteers provide a caring, non-judgmental environment for all of the clients coming through their doors. They truly help women, men and children with tangible (all free) and emotional support at what can be a time of crisis in their lives. They also have counseling and referrals for resources from housing to addiction to adoption. Our community is so blessed to have this organization to come alongside and help those who need it.
I love my time volunteering at Life Network Thrift Store. The employees are patient and kind. There are so many different tasks, and opportunities to interact with shoppers. The items they sell are great quality and price. I feel valued and appreciated, and blessed to be able to help in some small way to support families in my community!
Life Network is an amazing ministry!! They pride themselves on cultivating a community that values life. They educate and love women and men who walk through their doors. There is no judgement and they show the Love of Christ everyday to all their clients. I am amazed at the life changing stories that come from the pregnancy centers. I am equally grateful for Education for a Lifetime that go into our schools and emphasis safe relationships and suicide prevention through the Who Can Relate curriculum. We are so blessed to have Life Network in our community!! I believe in their mission and will continue to support them.
It’s so wonderful to have such an impactful ministry in our community! I love that they not only help abortion-vulnerable parents choose life, but also help them after the baby is born!
We've been supporting Life Network for year. The work tirelessy to save lives and help all who come to them in need. I've only had great experiences with Life Network.
I attended a study at Life Network. The women there are so compassionate, understanding, encouraging and genuine. There is no judgment or shaming . Just true love and caring for hurting women.
I have volunteered at Life Network for many years. Everyone there is very professional, kind, caring, loving and committed to serving those come to their facility. They are wonderful to work with and I am honored to be a part of this excellent ministry.
I prayed for the clients and the ministry there for 5 years and the outcomes of so many peoples lives were touched by the love and care the mothers received. They not only help women who choose life with the pregnancy but afterwards as well; and their partners or husbands. LifeNetwork helps in comprehensive ways in every aspect of parenting, and in life.
This organization has truly changed my life. I am so blessed by their life steps program and I always feel welcomed each time I come. A wonderful organization with an amazing mission!
Life Network Family Thrift Store has become my go-to place for not only delightful shopping experiences, but in the privileged capacity as a volunteer. The staff, faithful workers, and happy patrons are wonderful to work with. It is a blessing for this city, the donors, and for me personally, to be part of this organization, where resources support an extremely worthwhile cause...saving precious lives.
Great center, with very caring and wonderful staff. They have great programs for pregnant women and partners including classes ranging from early pregnancy to everyday life skills. I highly recommend this location to anyone who is expecting. This organization operates with integrity, quality and care for each client that enters its building.
My church was instrumental in starting the Colo. Spgs. Pregnancy Center three and a half decades ago. My husband and I have supported Life Network for 28 years. We appreciate their multi-faceted approach to ministering to the community. They offer life-affirming alternatives to those facing unplanned pregnancies. Life Steps provides mentoring and education for moms and dads. Men's Services equips new dads with resources and support. Education for a Lifetime educates local students on healthy relationships & mental health. Bridges of Hope offers healing and support classes for those suffering from the effects of post abortion. Life Network is a vital, life-giving ministry in Colo. Spgs.
Sincerely, Donna Baird
A wise person once said that, "There are fighters, there are those that support the fighters, and then there are those that do nothing. When my wife and I first became acquainted, we realized we had an opportunity to actually become a "fighter." There are so many issues out there, where we felt like there isn't much we can do, other than at times support the fighters. Now, we can actually do something that makes a difference for a baby, the baby's mother, and baby's father too. Our experience in volunteering at the Life Network Thrift store, has been nothing but positive. Between the new friends we've made, the great interactions we have with customers, and again, knowing that we are helping and supporting mothers in making sound decisions to support life, is very rewarding. We thought that by volunteering we'd be blessing others, when in fact, we are the ones being blessed!
I have been a volunteer with Life Network for a few years and it is one of the highest privileges of my life to serve alongside such an amazing group of caring individuals. All levels of leadership and volunteers are motivated by a sincere desire to help those in need of the services provided and who steward these resources well. I feel honored to witness firsthand many of the lives impacted through Life Network. We have also joined with the faithful partners who financially support this work and who get to be an important part of this incredible community outreach. Those who are blessed by this generosity are welcomed with the upmost love and respect.
I have had a relationship with Life Network for over 2 years. My ministry is volunteering at the Family Thrift Store. I have come to realize how wonderful and blessed it has been to be part of the Life Network family. This ministry helps young women and men in personnel crises, unexpected pregnancy's and other life threatening crises to find loving, Christ centered counseling and intervention from a Christian stand point.
The Family Thrift Store is a vital part of this ministry. This store has been providing much welcomed funding for the Life Network programs. Through prayer, generous donations, and volunteers this store has become very successful in fulfilling the vision hoped for from the beginning.
It is such a joy to be working with like minded Christians whose hearts are for the people the Lord has called on us to serve.
I have been volunteering at Life Network's Thrift store for 2 years now, since it first opened. I get to meet all sorts of wonderful people who come in to shop. Some know our mission and come to the store to support it; others come shop because they like our selection and clean store. The employees and other volunteers feel like family as we all do our part to help keep the store running smoothly. I truly enjoy volunteering my time with Life Network. The importance of Life Network's mission is a big contributor to my service.
The people who work for Life Network deeply care about making an impact and championing life. They work tirelessly to ensure that the thrift store is in a position to financially meet those needs. I am thankful to work alongside them.
I have worked for many years volunteering because it is so worth while for me to spend time with these young women who come into the pregnancy center. I have also cherished the time with other volunteers getting to know them one on one. I am so amazed at see the fetus watching the ultra sound and seeing it moving is the most awesome time for me. One would not realized until you see it for yourself there is a baby who moves with all it's parts hands, feet, head, and eyes, especially it's little heart beating! It is so worth having these centers available for these women who come in for a pregnancy test, and ultra sounds!
Life Network is a life-saving outreach in Colorado Springs
The ministry leverages a small budget to transform the lives of thousands of people each year by inspiring them to see the inherent value of LIFE--theirs and that of everyone around them!
If you want to see significant impact from your donation dollars, the loving team at Life Network delivers. Whether though mentoring teens, walking along-side young families, or providing comfort and guidance to the lost and hurting, Life Network is making a significant impact in our city!
I heard that they were opening a pregnancy center in my neighborhood, and I went to a meeting to check out the opportunities to serve. I trained for the volunteer receptionist position with the full time receptionist at the main center. She was so nice and patient with me as I learned the position. Now that I’m volunteering at the new pregnancy center, I’m really enjoying being able to serve and help newly expectant parents feel comfortable, supported and cared for. The director of the center where I volunteer is so appreciative and helpful, as I’m still learning new procedures. This is a truly caring place, no matter your situation!
Thank you, Life Network, for giving so much to the community. When I walk in I feel like I'm part of a family.
Life Network is a blessing in our community. The school based risk avoidance education is factual and accurate and prevented in a developmentally appropriate manner. Students love the program and benefit from it in our community.
I really admire Life Network and the work they do to serve families experiencing unexpected pregnancies. They go beyond just looking after the babies, but they also meet the needs of the expectant parents. They do a very good job of stewarding the financial resources and ensuring that they are making a significant impact.
I help with some of the admin office work at one of their locations. Everytime I go, I am hearing stories of women in an organic and genuine way. These women are showing significant growth from the Lifesteps program, enjoying the program's resources and benefits, and finding compassion for their unique circumstance. These women and families don't have to have it all together. They can just come as they are and have someone meet their needs. This may sound like a cheesy slogan line, but I would not be writing this review if I didn't believe in this organization and the impact it has on men, women, and children. If you invest in this place, you are investing in real futures who would be hopeless w/o the help they receive from Lifenetwork. Thanks for taking the time to read this :)
